Tongue Tie Support in De Pere, WI
Wondering if you or your child might have a tongue tie? Here’s what it means and how our De Pere office can help.
What is Tongue Tie?
Tongue tie, or ankyloglossia, happens when the frenulum (the small tissue under the tongue) is too tight or short, restricting tongue movement.
This can cause health issues such as:
✅Breastfeeding challenges: Babies may struggle to latch effectively, leading to feeding difficulties and slow weight gain. (We do not treat under age 4 but can recommend providers specializing in infants.)
✅Speech concerns: Difficulty producing sounds like “t,” “d,” “s,” “th,” “r,” and “l,” leading to speech delays or articulation issues. (We do not provide speech therapy but can refer to trusted professionals.)
✅Dental issues: Tongue tie can lead to crooked teeth, bite problems, and increased risk of gum disease.
✅Other health problems: Links have been found between tongue tie, sleep apnea, airway problems, and headaches.
If you suspect tongue tie is impacting your health or your child’s, contact our De Pere team to discuss next steps and therapy options.
